After Li Nan left, Pei Jing smiled brightly. “Miss, I knew you had me in your heart.”

His back was facing the window. The sunlight shone through and coated him with a layer of gold, making his smile look exceptionally flawless.

Ling Han’s heart pounded violently. She took a deep breath and calmed down again. Then, she led him out of the cafe.

“Let’s go back.”

Pei Jing didn’t resist and let her drag him out.

Back at the old mansion, Ling Han went to make medicine, while Pei Jing went to the kitchen to cook for her. When the aroma of the steak spread in the kitchen, he put away his phone. He had a profound look in his eyes.

“Ling Han, you can only be mine.”

The next morning, Ling Han took Pei Jing out to buy daily necessities. Just as the car stopped at Times Square, a group of reporters and paparazzi with cameras surrounded them.

“Miss Ling, is it true that you keep male hosts?”

“Because of your promiscuity, two male hosts got jealous and fought over you. How are you going to deal with it?”

“Won’t this affect the image of the Ling Corporation?”

All kinds of sharp and straightforward questions were thrown at her.

Ling Han’s eyes slowly turned icy. She took some time to glance at her phone and immediately understood what was happening.

She didn’t know who recorded the scene where she was pulled by Li Nan and Pei Jing in the cafe yesterday and posted it online.

The title “The eldest daughter of the Ling Corporation has promiscuous relationships with several male hosts” had already become a trending topic.

As for these paparazzi, they were specifically here to surround her with questions.

It had to be said that the Ling Corporation’s reputation was very useful.

Previously, Ling Han was bullied by her stepmother, Wang Lian. However, because she did not go out much and Ling Jian did not care about her, the outside world almost did not know that the Ling family had another daughter.

However, after the video was posted, someone intentionally pointed out that she was the eldest daughter of the Ling Corporation. Thus, the video instantly became viral.

The speed that which the video became viral was even faster than riding a rocket!

Many people questioned the authenticity of her identity in the comments. There were also people who said that it was probably because she had a bad personality that the Ling family hid her existence.

There were even people who went to look for Ling Jian to explain.

Ling Han narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the paparazzi in front of her.

“Who told you that the men in the video are male hosts? You are spreading rumors and slandering me.”

The paparazzi were stunned.

Just as they were about to ask more questions, Ling Han waved her sleeve and a colorless powder spread in the air. Accompanied by a sweet smell that was almost impossible to smell, the paparazzi, who had been agitated a moment ago, calmed down.

They looked at Ling Han and waited for her to explain.

Ling Han took the opportunity to pull Pei Jing to her side.

She had just scattered calming powder, which could calm their emotions. Now that they had all quieted down, she finally had a stage to perform on.

“The men in the video are not male hosts. Ah Jing is my fiancé. As for the other person, he is my suitor.”

“The two of them were fighting because the suitor was pestering me. Ah Jing was helping me resolve it.”

The paparazzi listened quietly and did not refute.

From the video, it seemed to make sense.

One of the paparazzi questioned, “Miss Ling, why did that person hug you in the beginning?”

“He was too excited to see me. That’s why my fiancé taught him a lesson.”

Ling Han said calmly, “There was a lot of noise in this video. Someone intentionally posted this to sully my reputation. This is something I will never allow. I will be taking legal actions against those who spread malicious rumors.”

She said it with certainty and her attitude was firm. The paparazzi were afraid of getting involved in a lawsuit, so they were a little worried for a moment.

Just as everyone was hesitating, Pei Jing calmly took out a small box from his pocket and knelt down on one knee in front of Ling Han.

“Ah Han, marry me.”
